I brought my pair of Nikon Monarch Binoculars about four months ago and I fell in love with them straight away. I brought them mainly for bird watching, and as I wanted a good pair of binoculars I spent quite a bit of time researching. They have a really nice feel are well balanced and weigh only 689grams with the strap on! I've even dropped them once on concrete and there was no damage done.
Three weeks after I got my binoculars I took them with me to Kenya for a safari. I recall standing on a hill looking towards the sun down into a valley. When I looked through my Nikon monarch's eye could see each house in the village clearly and even some of the people's faces, without the binoculars though I could see nearly nothing. This proved to me that the quality of the optics in the Nikon monarch binoculars is excellent.
My father in-law, has been bird watching for 30 years and he thinks they are the best thing since sliced bread. I have been invited along with him much more since I bought them. The quality is fantastic for the price you pay . You could easily spend over $2,000 on a pair of top class Nikons but if you broke them or lose them it would really break you. With my Monarchs I wouldn't loose too much sleep if anything happened to them.
Another other thing is that the way technology is moving the $2,000 optics will be $500 within about 5 years.
I also used my Nikon Monarch Binoculars to view the lunar eclipse last week and had a great view of the moon in shadow. Within our group we had three different pairs of very good quality binoculars to watch the eclipse and the view from my Nikons was by far the best! I had to share them out among everyone for the duration of the eclipse.
The majority of Nikon binoculars are waterproof as standard, they also excellent for proof lenses, and of the best piece of equipment you can get for their price. The monarch range have an extended eye relief option which is great for anybody who will be using them for extended periods of time, or wears glasses while looking through them.
The Nikon monarch binoculars are past all my tests with flying colours over and over, I don't think I'll ever be switching to a different model - just upgrading these! Highly recommend!
